Blue Spring - 2003

“The collective imagination cannot be organized otherwise : When a group of people has suffered humiliation or has lost hope, they create a beautiful and glorious tragedy in order to unify themselves and repair their wounded self-confidence. This fiction is based upon a true story, but the actual task is to find what is real in order to prove that their fantasy is in fact alive.”
/Boris Cyrulnik/

The stage is split in two : In the background, a transparent cage embodies the everflowing unconscious mind. The foreground shows creatures who struggle with themselves in a discourse on being, on existence they resist definition.

Confined under the spotlight, the body-sculpture becomes a conceptual icon, its trapped gesture creating captivating imagery. Creatures pursue existential frontiers and then expose them.

In suggesting a sustained respect for the responsibility we have towards one another, Pal Frenak strives to touch a notion of depth and boundlessness. It is here we are faced with the conscious counterpoint between characters who are at times boisterous or disturbing, at times bursting with tension from the company.

Austere and puritanical, the gestural vocabulary is stripped of both ornamentation and surplus to concentrate on what is essential.
